Noob question.

Started DL a torrent last night.

I hit 'pause', close the comp, went to sleep.

Wake up, open computer and the torrent 'link' was dead, 'force recheck' (I think) and now....

Well, its starting all over again... wich might be what happen with a 'force recheck'

Question:

I have a .asf on the comp that wont play... is there a way to hook that file with the torrent so Utorrent will just keep on going from where it left? Or am I doomed to start over again?

Cheers.

... it IS going from where you left it. Check the General tab. The "Save As" is where uT checked it.

You don't want to force recheck unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. It loses all partial pieces. If your torrent has 4MiB pieces, that can be SUBSTANTIAL % regression.

When I look into the general tab, in 'general' sub-section, under 'total size'

934mb(3.4mb done)

Wich leads me to belive, its not.

Where is it saving according to Save As? If that's not where you put it, STOP, right click, advanced, set download location.

It will recheck after you start it and will be where it was last time.

after soping and setting the save as accordingly to my previous file, he checked the file.

but when i look in the general tab, general sub-section into the total size, I still have the same thing (934mb (4.3 mb done))

so its obviously picked up from the last file, but dont seems to actually start from where it left...

If the LOCATION is the same where you saved / moved it under SAVE AS in the General tab, You did not have any more than that downloded. Let it finish, try not to interrupt transfers, and if you're going to stop uT, Stop the torrents first to avoid a recheck.
